Default Form reply looks different

I have created a form that I'm happy with. When I choose to open it, it
looks great. When I test it and sent it to myself, the fields I've
included in the first message tab get jumbled up.

- they actually look like a older version of the form I've saved many
days ago.

I've tried many things (looking at the code, publishing under different
names, saving etc) and I can't uncover the problem.

Could you please help?

Did you remember to click the Edit Read Page and make the same changes to the read layout?

Nevermind - I just found the issue - There are two buttons, "Edit
Compose Page" and "Edit Read Page".

You learn something new everyday!

Yes, but just finding it does not tell you that to make the autoloading
work between the two pages, you have to design the common elements in
un-split mode, and then split the form and make the unique changes to
each page. If you don't do it this way, the controls, though looking
the same, are truly different and the read page will not show what was
entered on the compose page. A gotcha Microsoft sets up by opening the
design form in split mode by default.
